Dissidents stormed the Libyan General Conference on Thursday, protesting the formation of a new government they say doesn’t represent all Libyans. At least 100 protesters took their grievances over the new cabinet announced by Prime Minister Mustafa Abushagur to the legislative assembly. Abushagur withdrew his proposed government list as a result of the protest, and told the congress he wants to submit new nominations before Sunday.
